Dunham‘s Point Reserve
Dunham's Point Reserve is a freedom camping area situated on the banks of the Waikato River at 1105 Ongaroto Road, near Kinleith and Mangakino in the South Waikato District.
The reserve offers stunning views of the river, with unusual rocks visible beneath the water and high bluffs rising above the opposite bank. It also serves as a convenient stop along the nationally renowned Waikato River Trail.
Large grassy areas make the reserve well suited to family picnics and casual camping, and on warm days the river provides a good paddling spot. Facilities include long-drop toilets and hot showers.
A permit is required to camp and can be obtained through the South Waikato District Council online or at local offices and i-SITEs.
